The world has gone through four waves of feminism, but in many countries women are still asking themselves the same questions. Why are we paid less than men for the same job? Can we control our own body and look the way we want? Is it fair that we get all the housework? And what about gender-based violence? The authors of this book, Taby Jackson Gee and Freya Rose, find answers to the questions that concern modern women in the works of famous feminists of different times: Virginia Woolf, Simone de Beauvoir, Rosa Luxembourg, Kate Millet and many others. You will learn how their views have been transformed over the course of several centuries. The voices of well-known thinkers do not always sound consistent, but their diversity is the main advantage of the book: times change, which means that opinions also change.
